Baylor’s offense is down to 110th on KenPom, which is the worst mark in over a decade. Things need to improve for Baylor to be competitive in the Big 12.
Against Arizona, Baylor’s pick-and-roll offense with Matt Mayer at the helm showed why it can be so difficult to defend:
Last season, nearly every Baylor opponent elected to hard hedge all ball screens. In that defense, the screen’s man comes up to the level of the screen. Arizona doesn’t (have the screener’s man) come up too far on Mayer, but he still comes up a bit.
